3 SERVICE RM2042
7. Start the transmission of a mark signal by pressing ‘FUNC’ and selecting ‘Test’ and ‘mark’ in the
display.
8. Adjust R22 until the peak frequency diviation is 2600 Hz ±10%.
9. Start the transmission of a space signal.
10. Control that the peak frequency diviation is 4200 Hz ±10%.
11. Change the operation mode of the RM2042 back to user mode.
12. Change the DSC VHF channel setting back to channel 70.
ADJUSTMENT OF BALANCED TX AF AMPLIFIER
When the RM2042 is used as an encoder in a semi automatic system, the balanced TX AF output has
to be used. The balanced amplifier is build-up around the operational amplifier U3.2-1, the transistor Q4-
1 and the transformer TR1-1. The output level is adjustable to 0 dBm ±10 dB by means of the trimpot R17-
1 and must be adjusted in order to give a modulation index of 2 ±10%. As mentioned in the previous
adjustment procedure, it is necessary to use the same VHF tranceiver during the adjustment as the one
the RM2042 is going to be installed with.
NOTE! To perform this test, it is necessary to change the operation mode of both the RM2042 and the
VHF tranceiver from user to service mode. This change of operation mode is only allowed for trained
technicians and the information of how to do it is therefore only included in the DSC-VHF INSTALLATION
GUIDE.
1. Repeat point 1 - 5 in the previous adjustment procedure.
2. Turn the switch S1-1 into the position: ‘E’.
3. Start the transmission of a mark signal by pressing ‘FUNC’ and selecting ‘Test’ and ‘mark’ in the
display.
4. Adjust R17 until the peak frequency diviation is 2600 Hz ±10%.
5. Repeat point 9, 10 and 11 in the previous adjustment procedure.
3.6.2 ADJUSTMENT OF MICROPROCESSOR (MODULE 2)
ADJUSTMENT OF 4.9152 MHz OSCILLATOR
The 4.9152 MHz oscillator is build-up around the inverter U16.4-2 as a gate oscillator and is adjusted by
the trimming capacitor C45-2. The oscillator is used for baud rate generation and must therefore be
adjusted carefully.
1. Connect a frequency counter by means of a passive probe to the output CT0 (pin 9) of the counter
U20-2.
2. Adjust C45-2 until the frequency is 2.4576 MHz ±2 Hz.
ADJUSTMENT OF 32.768 kHz OSCILLATOR
The 32.768 kHz oscillator is build-up around U31-2 and is adjusted by the trimmer capacitor C39-2. The
oscillator is used for real time clock generation and must therefor be adjusted carefully.
1. Connect a frequency counter by means of a passive probe to the MFO output (pin 16) of the
integreted real time clock circuit.
2. Adjust C39-2 until the frequency is 32.768 kHz ±1 Hz.
